iPhone/iPod Touch General Discussion

The Apple store ran out of ipods? lmao

I know, what a tragedy. Business is better than usual I guess. The store was half full on a weekday at 11:30. Think about that.

Bump: I found a site that has every episode of South Park in mobile form so you can watch it on your iPod touch or iPhone.

South Park Mobile! Watch South Park on your iPhone!

Sullivan: Ever find out how to run MAC OS X in Windows?

I was thinking maybe downloading vmware and a leopard image and trying to use xcode on that.

No, when I actually order my parts for my new pc, i will be installing leopard and xp on it, so that's when I will start fiddling around with the sdk.

I had Leo running successfully in VMWare some time ago. It's a bit tricky, but it works. (I had it on 10.5.2, IIRC).

The key thing is that you have a HDD image that already had the install DVD copied all the files on to it (i.e. in the state right after the reboot, before booting the first time from HDD and setting initial settings).
From there you can configure OSX and run the updates (again, a bit tricky, but managable).

The amount of different variations of ipods is absolutely ridiculous, there has to be at least 10 seperate Nanos as well as other numerous and often useless variations. This "big screen" bullshit doesn't surprise me. God, I hate apple lol

 

[Vee]

I can see a iPhone nano coming out and being successful. As long as its Pay as you go and its under

* votes for iPhone shuffle

 

[Lachrymose]

Oh, god. My touch seems big in my pocket.

My touch seems small in mine. iPhone nano would be uber.

A 7-9 inch screen? Are they crazy? That's not an iPod anymore. That's getting near Tablet computer...

 

[Hellcat]

mhh, iTablet, yummyumm

Bump: mhh, iTablet, yummyumm

 

[Sullivan]

Eww, I couldn't see them coming out with a device called iTablet lol.

^I bet the druggies who are hooked on prescription drugs are gonna love it though.

I got a mic at Target for $9.99 today. I can finally use Shazam and talk using Palringo.

I wouldn't use vmware for developing, it was way too slow, and some things require some tinkering to work(usb for example), I am running a pentium 4 though. I would suggest running osx86, its a lot faster than vmware in my experience.

 

[Hellcat]

Greyone is pretty much right on that.
In VMWare it's awsomely slow, but OK for a quick check if one would like to work with it.

For really using it, OSX86 - or even a real Mac - would be the way to go - I am currently saving some $$$ for the later

 

[Sullivan]

Ehh, Hellcat, just get the osx86, don't waste the money on an over priced pc.

 

[eighty4]

Using OSX86 has no where near the same feel as a real Mac.

Oh just fuck you Apple. Right when I get an Apple product, it gets outdated right away. :tdown:. Not cool Apple. Its probably an excuse, because the devs are getting close to jailbreaking the 2G Touch.
